Summary

Yosemite Valley Charter is a K–12 alternative school in Fresno, California, serving 3,065 students. In 2024–2025, its overall results were mixed: ELA was just above the state, math was below it, and science was well above it. Science is the school’s clearest strength: 43% of students were proficient, compared with 33% statewide, and this was higher than every nearby school with reported results.

Compared with nearby schools, the school’s ELA result was strong: 51% proficiency ranked second among nine schools, behind Endeavor Charter at 54%, and was 15 points above the nearby-school average. Math was a more mixed picture: 33% proficiency was 5 points below the state, but 11 points above the nearby-school average and third among nine schools. Grade results vary: third-grade math was 14 points below the state, while 11th-grade ELA was 16 points above it; science was above the state in every reported grade. The supplied data do not include comparable results for the Yosemite Valley Charter District, or a SchoolDigger rank or star rating for the school.

Results improved in all three subjects from 2022–2023 to 2024–2025: ELA rose 4 percentage points, math 4 points, and science 7 points. Math’s gap with the state narrowed by 1 point, while science’s lead widened by 5 points. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 29.4, the second-highest among nearby schools with figures, below Clovis Online Charter at 40.1; a high ratio coexists with strong science and ELA results, but math remains below the state.
